Support a PADS Homeless Shelter in Waukegan with
Food Donations or Onsite Service
PADS (Providing
Advocacy, Dignity, and Shelter)
is one of First Presbyterian Church of Lake
Forest’s most significant Lake County
ministries. On the 2nd and 5th
Tuesdays of each month from October through May,
we provide and serve food for dinner, breakfast
and prepare bag lunches at an overnight shelter
in a Waukegan church that serves 44 homeless
men.
One
team of volunteers prepares or purchases food
and beverages for the dinner meal and delivers
it to our church on the day of service for
delivery to the Waukegan site. Three additional
teams of volunteers go onsite: one team sets up
and serves the dinner meal, a second team
provides and an overnight presence at the
shelter, and a third team arrives in the morning
to prepare and serve a hot breakfast.
You
can be a part of this important and rewarding
ministry on one or many of our services dates
either by preparing or providing food for the
dinner meal or by volunteering to work onsite.
Our guests are truly thankful for our support
and we believe you will be richly blessed by
your involvement. Sign-up sheets are posted on
the bulletin board in the main hallway; you may
email us as well. For more information or to be
